Security fix for CVE-2016-3674. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2016-175b56bb05 2016-04-04 17:23:29.742347 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : xstream Product : Fedora 24 Version : 1.4.9 Release : 1.fc24 URL : Summary : Java XML serialization library Description : XStream is a simple library to serialize objects to XML and back again. A high level facade is supplied that simplifies common use cases. Custom objects can be serialized without need for specifying mappings. Speed and low memory footprint are a crucial part of the design, making it suitable for large object graphs or systems with high message throughput. No information is duplicated that can be obtained via reflection. This results in XML that is easier to read for humans and more compact than native Java serialization. XStream serializes internal fields, including private and final. Supports non-public and inner classes. Classes are not required to have default constructor. Duplicate references encountered in the object-model will be maintained. Supports circular references. By implementing an interface, XStream can serialize directly to/from any tree structure (not just XML). Strategies can be registered allowing customization of how particular types are represented as XML. When an exception occurs due to malformed XML, detailed diagnostics are provided to help isolate and fix the problem. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Security fix for CVE-2016-3674 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1321789 - CVE-2016-3674 XStream: enabled processing of external entities https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1321789 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum"update program.
